Abstract: A compound seasoning composition comprising a glutamate salt mixture wherein the gram equivalent quantities of sodium, potassium and calcium ions of said salt are within the ranges of sodium:potassium=0-3.5:1, calcium:potassium=0-1.5:1 and the number of moles of glutamic acid:the total gram equivalent number of potassium, sodium and calcium=0.1-1.2:1.

Abstract: A mixed seasoning consisting of 100 parts by weight of monosodium glutamate, 0.05 to 25 parts by weight of a flavor inducing 5' nucleotide, and 0.5 to 10.0 parts by weight of at least one alkali salt of an organic acid selected from the group consisting of sodium fumarate, sodium citrate, sodium or calcium lactate, sodium maleate, sodium tartrate and sodium ascorbate is disclosed.
